Takahashi Yoko Shiawase wa Tsumi no Nioi Lyrics

What is the dream? We have the dream now
What is the dream? We make the dream come true

[Instrumental Intro]

matteireba, yume wa kanau hazu to
tada shinjiteta osanai hi
sora wo nagareru hikari ni negai wo kake
hohoemi nagara ima wo tsumuide-ita
When I was young, I simply believed
that if I waited, my dream would come true.
Making a wish to the light flowing from the sky,
I smiled while weaving the present.

matte-ite mo, yume wa kanawanai to
sou s___ta no wa itsu no goro
yasashii hito wa kanashimi bakari seoi
omoide to yuu yami ni umorete yuku
Then I came to realize,
that even if I wait, my dream will not come true.
Kind people are burdened with nothing but sadness,
being hidden/buried in the darkness called memories.

koboreru tsumi no nioi
doushite nanimo kizutsukezu ni
ai wo mamorenai no
afureru uso no kakera
kono te ni daita shiawase ni wa [1]
dareka no namida shimite'ru
The overflowing smell of sin
Why can't I protect love
without hurting anyone's feelings?
Shards of overflowing lies
Someone's tears are seeping into
the happiness I held in my hands. [1]
[Instrumental]

tawamure no nai kokoro dake wo motte [2]
kono sekai e to orita no ni
totta toki kara ushinau koto ni obie
yasuragi sae mo itsuka teki ni mawasu
Although I descended to this world
with nothing but my heart, which is without amusement[2]
from the moment I held it, I'm afraid of losing it.
Even tranquility some day turns to the enemy

nijinda tsumi no nioi
doushite nanimo hoshigarazu ni
ikite wo yukenai no
yuganda uso no kakera
mabushii asu wo omoi nagara [3]
nemurenu yoru wo kazoeru
The smell of sin that oozed out
Why can't I live my life
without coveting anyone?
Shards of warped lies
While dreaming of a brilliant tomorrow, [3]
I count the sleepless nights.

koboreru tsumi no nioi
doushite nanimo kizutsukezu ni
ai wo mamorenai no
afureru uso no kakera
kono te ni daita shiawase ni wa
dareka no namida shimite'ru
The overflowing smell of sin
Why can't I protect love
without hurting anyone's feelings?
Shards of overflowing lies
Someone's tears are seeping into
the happiness I held in my hands.

[Instrumental]

What is the dream? We have the dream now
What is the dream? We make the dream...
What is the dream? We have the dream now
What is the dream? We make the dream come true
